How I Wish I Had Taught Maths: Reflections on research, conversations with experts, and 12 years of mistakes Review: A Very Important Book for Mathematics Education - In recent years, there has been a growing trend in mathematics education, away from direct instruction, toward allowing students to "discover" the math through exploring relationships or solving problems by themselves or in small groups - often with disastrous results for many students. In _How I Wish I'd Taught Maths_, British educator Barton examines a wide range of neuroscience research, looking at how students actually learn math and why the discovery approach is not effective when students are learning something new. He then explains how to apply these research findings in the classroom. His approach offers the potential to reorient mathematics education in the best possible way, with great benefits for many students. I've been a secondary math teacher for many years, and I believe this book is one of the most valuable and important contributions that has been made to mathematics education in recent decades. Review: Fantastic! - Extremely important and valuable experience for math teachers, but with interest for other teachers as well as people interested in education. It's much more than a simple debunking of romantic and outdated theories on education. it's a practical explanation about the importance of the curriculum, structured teaching and knowledge. Instead of talking about "XXI century competences" and similar empty buzzwords, it helps all of us to do good teaching! ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #168,994 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #186 in Curricula (Books) #251 in Math Teaching Materials #363 in Educational Certification & Development | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 4.7 out of 5 stars (717) | | Dimensions | 5.75 x 1.02 x 8.19 inches | | ISBN-10 | 1911382497 | | ISBN-13 | 978-1911382492 | | Item Weight | 1.45 pounds | | Language | English | | Print length | 452 pages | | Publication date | May 16, 2023 | | Publisher | John Catt Educational | | Reading age | 18 years and up | ## Images ![How I Wish I Had Taught Maths: Reflections on research, conversations with experts, and 12 years of mistakes - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61WdVjikxqL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Very Important Book for Mathematics Education *by C***Y on August 6, 2018* In recent years, there has been a growing trend in mathematics education, away from direct instruction, toward allowing students to "discover" the math through exploring relationships or solving problems by themselves or in small groups - often with disastrous results for many students.
